Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for interacting with data in a data repository. After automatically populating one or more display elements with data items from a first dataset, one or more unpopulated display elements can be identified that can be populated with one or more additional data items from another dataset in a data repository. A second dataset that is joined to the first dataset can be identified based on template definitions associated with the display elements. The second dataset can include the one or more additional data items corresponding to the one or more unpopulated display elements. The one or more unpopulated display elements can be populated with the one or more additional data items retrieved from the second dataset to update the graphical user interface.

Abstract: A method is disclosed, as well as systems, performed by one or more processors, for interacting with data in a data repository. The method comprises receiving, in a data catalogue environment, a search request relating to one or more items in the data repository and determining an object type associated with the one or more items. Other operations comprise loading an object template in dependence on the determined object type, populating the template with data from the data repository in dependence on the search request to create an object view, and displaying the object view within the data catalogue environment. The data repository comprises a plurality of joined datasets, and wherein the object view comprises one or more links to items in a joined dataset.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems and methods for molecular identification and polymer (e.g., nucleic acid) sequencing using nanopores. The polymer may be passed through or in proximity to the nanopore and various subunits of the polymer may affect the current flowing through the nanopore. The various subunits may be identified by measuring the current at a plurality of voltages applied across the nanopore and/or membrane. In some cases, the polymerization of tagged nucleotides presents tag molecules to the nanopore that can be identified by measuring the current at a plurality of voltages applied across the nanopore and/or membrane. Also provided herein are systems and methods for sequencing both the sense and anti-sense strand of a double stranded nucleic acid molecule with a nanopore and methods for using ribonucleic acid (RNA) speed bump molecules to slow the passage of a nucleic acid molecule through or in proximity to a nanopore.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides biochips and methods for making biochips. A biochip can comprise a nanopore in a membrane (e.g., lipid bilayer) adjacent or in proximity to an electrode. Methods are described for forming the membrane and insert-ing the nanopore into the membrane. The biochips and methods can be used for nucleic acid (e.g., DNA) sequencing. The present disclosure also describes methods for detecting, sorting, and binning molecules (e.g., proteins) using biochips.

Abstract: Examples of a multiple-mask multiple-exposure lithographic technique and suitable masks are provided herein. In some examples, a photomask includes a die area and a stitching region disposed adjacent to the die area and along a boundary of the photomask. The stitching region includes a mask feature for forming an integrated circuit feature and an alignment mark for in-chip overlay measurement.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for improved graphical user interfaces. The system enables multiple separate applications, each of which may typically be in their own separate window or tab, to be interacted within a single window, such as a tab of a web browser application. The main window includes smaller sub-windows that can correspond to a distinct application with its own graphical user interface. A large sub-window within the main window is opened for the primary application where the user is currently interacting with a graphical user interface of the primary application. The user then is able to switch between applications (all within the same main window) and applications that are no longer being used can be minimized in smaller sub-windows off to the side of the primary sub-window. The system enables a user to drag and drop an item from one sub-window to another sub-window. Some of the interactions between the windows and data transformations are stored and can be visually presented in a graph.
